Episode notes

If listeners tell you they love your podcast but you’re 50+ episodes in and you’re *still* not sure where (or if) people are finding your show, or how to connect podcast growth to revenue, we’re about to fix that.

In this Fix My Pod coaching session, I’m helping Jill uncover why her podcast wasn’t driving signups or sales, and showing you how to track exactly where listeners are coming from, how to know which episodes are driving signups to your email list (and which ones aren’t), the 90-day marketing rule every podcaster should follow, and the simple-but- overlooked metrics that can help you attribute revenue back to your podcast. So if you’re ready to run your show like someone who knows what’s working and why, hit play and let’s dive in.
